    Pets waste natural resources and precious food while children
    in Africa starve. It takes 7 pounds of grain, 40 gallons of
    water, and two gallons of gasoline to deliver a pound of Alpo
    to Fido. Can you say global warming? Not only that, but pets
    produce CO2 just by breathing, and indirectly produce it via
    visits to the vet. Toss in all the pet accessories and you
    have even more wasted natural resources, plus they put fecal
    coliform bacteria in the watershed.

    Hello? What more do you need to eat your pet? Global warming,
    clean, available water, and starving children aren't enough?
    For every pound of Fido you eat, that's one less pound of cow
    and that much less gasoline turning into CO2. And pets tend
    to be a lot leaner than cows.

    So don't be selfish, do the right thing: Eat your pets. Asians
    have been doing it for eons -- do your part.

    Well, Teddy; looking at your fat-ass, its obvious you've eaten all the pets
    in your own and several other neighborhoods. Now that you've drowned the
    girl you were cheating with, eaten all the pets in Mass.; what's next, join
    the priesthood and molest little boys?

    If they'd quit breeding children they can't afford to feed, there would
    be no starving children.

    At least I can spay/neuter my pets...

    You've missed the point here Tedward.

    Buy pets that can hunt for themselves and you. That way, no "alpo" is
    needed, the animals get excercised and everyone gets fed.

    My dog hunts rabbit, hare and deer. We eat well and it's an eco friendly way
    to feed the dog and us.

    Obligatory afb On Topic stuff: Smoked venison, larded with bacon
    fat.....mmmmm

    I understand that, I was - at that moment - as bored as the OP was. Plus, I

    For every pound of Fido you eat, that's one less pound of cow
